Cacaomuseum: look at cacao, taste chocolate

The Cacaomuseum on the Czaar Peterstraat combines an exhibition with a chocolate shop. Workshops and tastings are a separate offer alongside the museum exhibition, which is mentioned as free.

Plan your visit ↗

The product behind the bar

The permanent presentation focuses on cacao and chocolate. Ask which steps or subjects are explained, so that your visit goes beyond simply comparing flavours in the shop.

Make it yourself by appointment

Bean-to-bar and praline workshops are mentioned in the programme. They require booking and have their own duration; an open shop does not mean you can join a workshop straight away.

Tasting with attention

An organised tasting can offer explanations of flavour and origin. Discuss the programme and any questions about ingredients in advance, especially when booking for a group.

Before you go

Check the Wednesday-to-Saturday opening and confirm workshops separately. For a group visit, ask about available places and the practical facilities at the venue.
